EB 10 / Base profile, thickness 1 mm

*Base profile including a drip ledge used for horizontal set-up of thermal insulating plates in the contact insulation system – ETICS.*

**Material:**

* Natural aluminum, alloyed

**Advantages-application:**

* Horizontal set-up of insulation material;
* Dripping edge guarantee the water drains in a vertical direction from the bottom of the ETICS structure;
* System protection against mechanical damage;
* Rainwater draining off the system, prevention of any capillary rise under insulation material.

**Installation tips:**

* Place the base profile to the wall, align with a spirit-level and mark places to drill holes for anchors;
* Do not use impact drilling for hollow bricks to prevent inner brick partitions from breaking - the anchor would not hold in the masonry;
* Insert the anchor through the hole in the profile into the predrilled, sufficiently deep and clean hole in the masonry;
* Fix the profile by hammering a steel screw in the anchor;
* To prevent the profile from distorting due to uneven masonry, use spacers for installation;
* Base profiles are joined to one another using base profile joint units.
